Command-line SSL test in WLS6.1

Question

With Weblogic 6.0, I used to be able to test if SSL
was working on the command-line by using this
command:
java –Dssl.debug weblogic.Admin -username name -password pw -url
https://localhost:7002 PING
This used to work fine.
But now with WLS 6.1, the weblogic.Admin command
refuses the protocol https and the port 7002. There's
probably a bug. It's giving me an error:
Failed to connect to http://localhost:7001 due to:
[java.net.ConnectException: No server found at HTTP://localhost:7001]
These commands work fine though:
java weblogic.Admin -username name -password pw -url t3://localhost:7001
PING
java weblogic.Admin -username name -password pw -url localhost PING
How else would you test SSL on the command-line?
Don't tell me "write a utility", cuz none of my clients
will want to do that. I have to find something
that is ready to use out-of-the-box.
Thanks a lot!

Answer 1

This works perfectly!
java -Dssl.debug=true
-Dweblogic.security.SSL.ignoreHostnameVerification=true weblogic.Admin
-username name -password pwd -url t3s://localhost:7002 PING
BTW, I forgot to turn on the tunneling, so that's why
accessing with http didn't work. (By default tunneling
is off, so only t3 works for weblogic.Admin.)
Thanks a lot, I'll be using this.

The solution to your problem is rather simple:
Just use -Dweblogic.security.SSL.ignoreHostnameVerification=true
